Positions
Strategic Pricing Developer
Vail Resorts
Broomfield, CO
2020 - 2019
- Part-time role through the Pricing Analytics team, where I used all the learnings from my independent project around cryptocurrencies to setup similar web scraping systems at Vail Resorts and improve the system I originally created in 2017/18 as an intern for the same team. The project involved around 60 hours of work and was finished in January. I will be working again with Vail Resorts in March doing some part-time work for the data engineering team, as they work their way through all kinds of Alteryx workflow and I have been asked to help.

Independent Projects
Founder
PredictCrypto.com
Boulder, CO
2020 - 2018
- Ongoing independent project where I look at the drivers of cryptocurrency price changes and test different trading strategies. The point of the project is to boost my own learning by exploring interesting topics and tools in data science, by creating tutorials that teach people programming. What’s unique about my tutorials however, is that they are designed to use data that is never more than 1 hour old, and to provide interesting tutorials that also happen to create semi-live predictive models that could actually be used to make trades on the cryptocurrency markets. In fact, I currently use these completely automated systems to perform trades, and I currently have the capability of having automated trading systems run for 4 separate exchanges at once using 4 different XGBoost models. I have outlined this entire process step by step in an Alteryx Use Case that was approved and published: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Use-Cases/Predicting-and-Trading-on-the-Cryptocurrency-Markets-using/ta-p/494058
